Adobe Acrotbat X - when combining files, set the default bookmark to "full page" view
When combining multiple pdf files into a single file using the "Combine supported files in Acrobat.." feature (right click menu in explorer), the combined document contains bookmarks for each of the combined files - so far, so good.
However, all of the book marks are set to show a "page width" view of the file - no good. I need to set the default bookmark to show the "full page" view when clicked.
I need to set this up as a default as there are too many bookmarks to go back and change individually.
How do I do this? Either as a default, or to globally change the display view once the file is created?
Windows XP, Adobe Acrobat Pro X, version 10.1.4
Not possible with Acrobat. The defaults cannot be changed, and there is no way to alter the action of an existing bookmark via scripting so it can't be automated without a custom plugin (I don't know of one that does it out of the box).

How to set the default page size ?
Hi there,
I just bought a 15.4" Macbook Pro.
When I use Safari to surf, I found that the image/fonts are to small for my liking.
So I did VIEW > ZOOM IN two times & the image/fonts & it become satisfactory.
But after I shutdown & restart the laptop again, I find that whenever I startup, the page in Safari when back to the smaller setting & I have to click VIEW > ZOOM IN twice again .
My question is how to make this settings permanent ? It is irritating having to do VIEW > ZOOM IN everytime I start up the system !!
Any ideas ?
ThnaksIn Safari, go to Safari >> Preferences. Click on the Appearance tab. Set the standard and monospaced fonts. That not only sets the default fonts for web pages (many web-sites will specify other fonts), but also the default sizes (though web-sites can specify alternate sizes). Also, on the 'Advanced' tab, there's a checkbox labeled 'Never use font sizes smaller than' followed by a drop-down. This permits you to prevent the text from going beneath the specified size.
The advanced tab also permits you to provide a CSS stylesheet to apply as the default. If you know CSS, this can be very powerful. -
Unable to open the document when combining files.
We have a user that gets an error when combining files. It says
Unable to open the document:
<Filename and path>
Please check to see if you have read permission for the above file.
Retry and cancel buttons.
We get this error on every subsequent file, it works on the first one after the computer starts.
This computer has Windows Vista Business with SP2, Adobe Acrobat X with the latest patches.
It doesn't matter if the files are local or on a network drive, the same always occurs. I have cleared
all user and system temporary files, re-installed, verified the Acrobat Add-In for Word 2010 is active,
verifed the PDF printer is working fine. It only happens when trying to combine files. I have given the
user local administrator privilidges, tried with my account that has domain admin priviledges, no luck.
I really need some suggestions...
Thanks,
TomI have found out from Adobe technical support that this is a known issue with Office 2010 SP1 installed.
This is an FYI for anyone else experiencing this issue, remove SP1 and it will work ok.
They said an update to correct this issue will be coming within the next quarter.

My school has a website. The professor uploads files in Word. When I click on the link at home using Pages, the download window opens with nothing in it and Safari opens with a blank in the address book. What Could be wrong? Wrong set up?
Hi Jo,
If I'm interpreting this correctly, the Word file downloads correctly, but when you open it in Pages, the link(s) which your instructor has embedded in the Word file are not correctly translated into Pages.
If the link shows the actual address, you should be able to copy that and paste it into the location bar in Safari, press return, and get to the website that way.
An alternate route might be to download one of the open source Office applications, OpenOffice.org, LibreOffice, or NeoOffice. These are written to more closely emulate the behaviours of MS Word than Pages, and may provide better support for links embedded in Word files.

When combining files, conversion keeps failing with a red notice that the document is password protected. I was combining all pdf files and had just been successful with some of the same content under a different file name. What is wrong and how do I correct it?
Hey SUSANO,
I am sorry but you cannot combine files if they are password protected.
You can check the same under 'File > Properties> Security

How to retain numerical order (Of file names) when combining files in Acrobat (9) Standard
How to retain numerical order (Of file names) when combining files in Acrobat (9) Standard, please see the attached screenshot for a clearer explanation.
I understand that if we prefix all files with leading zero's this will probably resolve the issue but I just wondered if anyone new the answer. The ironic situation is that version 6 has no problem.
I have spent over an hour with techincal support who were unable to provide me with an answerIt is not clear how you are trying to do the order. Have you tried to select a set of files and then use the arrow buttons to move them in the list? If you select the heading, that will typically reorder the files by that heading and undo everything you had done before.
You should be able to select groups of files and move them up and down in the list. All of those options appear on your view, so what is the real question? -
How do I set the default to adobe 9.3?
How do I set the default to Adobe 9.3? I have Acrobat 6.0 that tries to open. However, I want the Adobe Reader 9.3 to open. How do I make this change?
I had the exact same problem.....iinstalled on a Windows XP machine
You probably had 9.3 already installed, then you pulled out your 6.0 Acrobat Professional disk and installed that.
What you need to do is "remove" your Adobe 9.3.
Re-start your machine. Then reload Adobe ...try Adobe 8.
Now it won't use Acrobat 6.0. At this point, select an existing PDF file, RIGHT click, select "Open With...". You won't probably see Acrobat 6.0 so you have to "BROWSE" ... find Adobe, then find "6.0". Select.
At this point Adobe 8 will be your default, but, you can always select 6.0 by "right clicking" the PDF first, when you want to. -
Error (file skipped) when combining files
Getting an error message on some files(error file skipped)@ when combining files, the properties of the files with errors are the same as the files which are okay. Anyone got a fix for this?
No the the files aren’t protected. But I solved the problem by copying the files to another folder.
Seems like another process was still using the files(strange but that’s data for you)

How do I set the default Hero image in a Muse slideshow widget when using Free Form Thumbnails?
Hello,
I am trying to find out how to set the default Hero image when using a Muse slideshow widget and in the Layout section I have the "Free Form Thumbnails"
box checked.
In other words, when the page loads I want to define which image displays as the first Hero image.
If I do not select the "Free Form Thumbnails" option, the top left Thumbnail image always displays first. This is fine.
But when I select the Free Form Thumbnails" checkbox I don't know how to define which image shows first as the Hero image.
I have a short video at this link where I illustrate the question:
http://amson.org/misc/default-hero-image-1.mp4
I have added a WMV video file at the link below:
http://amson.org/misc/default-hero-image-1.wmv
Okay… I think I've worked out how to do it!
[1] First have the "Free Form Thumbnails" box UNCHECKED.
[2] Organize the Thumbnails and place the image that you want to be the first Hero image when the page loads in the top left corner of the Thumbnails group.
[3] When you "Preview Site In Browser" the Thumbnail image in the top left corner will always display as the first Hero image.
[4] If you want "Free Form Thumbnails" go ahead now and SELECT that checkbox.
[5] Whichever image was in the top left of the Thumbnail group before you checked "Free Form Thumbnails" will still show up as the first Hero image when the page loads, regardless of where that thumbnail image is located within the Thumbnail images group.
Thanks very much.
Chris.Hi,
The sequence of operation you are doing to set the home page for public users is correct. You are getting the login screen as the "custom page group" selected as "home page" has not been granted to public.
Also, while logging-out, it is normal behaviour to get the screen where it shows the list of partner applications from where user has been logged-out. When you click on "Return" button, you will get to the "home page" set above.
Hope it clarifies the things.

How do I set the default file path for the Place command?
I keep my graphics files for each document in a particular folder. Every time I open an existing InDesign document and place a new image I have to browse back to that location - even though all of the previous images in that document came from the same folder. InDesign does not remember the file path that was used previously in the document. This is very annoying.
IS THERE A WAY TO SET THE DEFAULT FILE PATH, OR LOCATION, FOR IMAGE FILES?
I have looked through the preferences, searched the forums and internet, but I have not found any reference to setting default paths. Is there a setting like the one in MS Word called "File Locations" on the Options toolbox?
Thank you.Since you're working in ID on Windows, you can take advantage of a neat trick in Windows. Copy the file path out of the File Explorer address bar and paste it directly into the Place filename field. That will jump you directly to the desired volume. For example, let's say I want to place a graphic located at X:\PS Jobs\May PS\709672bp\Working Source Files\Links. I copy that entire path from the File Explorer address bar, go to InDesign, select File|Place, and press Control + V to paste that path into the filename field. I press the Open button and Shazam! I'm there instantly, without a bunch of navigation.
You can do the same thing in the File|Save As and File|Export fields. Let's say you want export a PDF file from InDesign to the volume X:\PS Jobs\May PS\709672bp\Working PDF Files. First copy the desired file path from the File Explorer window. In InDesign, select File|Export, click anywhere in the filename field, and press the Home key to move the insertion point to the front of the filename. Press Control + V to paste that path in front of the filename, then add the backslash character (\). The filename will now look like this: X:\PS Jobs\May PS\709672bp\Working PDF Files\Filename.pdf. Press the Save button to bring up the Export Adobe PDF window. Select your desired PDF preset, press the Export button, and the PDF file will magically appear in the desired volume.
This sounds really complicated, but it's not. In practice, it only takes a few seconds. I probably save an hour's worth of needless navigation every day with this technique. -
How do I set the default folder for file - open file... ?
When I save a file, photo, etc., the default folder for OPENING a file becomes the last folder I SAVED to - even after closing and reopening Firefox. Is there a way to maintain the same default folder for opening files?
Thanks.Originally posted by: kwarner.uneedspeed.net
Well... I found over 200 bugs none of which seemed to talk about setting
the default folder. I probably missed the relevant bug in the spew.
I ask a question here as a last resort -- after I've done what I think
is an appropriate search for answers.
But thanks for your help in any case.

How to set the default Excel cell format when opening XML to XLS using an existing stylesheet?
Hi,
I have an XML file, which I'm opening with the Excel application. The stylesheet I use is horizontal.xsl.
The problem arised when the XML has data in the format "1/4" or "1/16", which is translated in the Excel as date (like "01/04/2007").
I think I have to set the default cell type to "Text" instead of "General". Does anyone know how it can be done?Is this the same question as idoZo, if so jigg has already answered it. If not then you should post your own query not hijack someone elses giving a clear and concise question, "how to set it??" doesn't help you or other in the forum to provide you with a solution.
Is this relevant to TestStand? If it is then help by providing which version you are using and what software you are using with it. If not then post your question in the correct board.

System keeps re-setting the default app to Preview for iWork files.
Hello.
I've scoured the internet for a solution to this problem, but can't find one. The problem applies to Numbers, Pages and Keynote, and I am putting this post in the forum for each. I shall explain it using a Numbers file as an example.
For three or four years, I've had a file that was created in Numbers to be opened in Numbers; it's a spreadsheet that I update with every transaction of my bank account.
Until about a week ago, the file would always open in Numbers, its default application, and then the file kept opening in Preview instead of in Numbers. I checked the 'Get Info' panel and found that its default application was Preview. This was strange, so I changed it to Numbers. When I opened the file the next day, it again opened in Preview, and I found again that Preview was set as its default app. This time, I set Numbers as the default app by right-clicking on the file, selecting 'Open With', and Numbers wasn't on the list, so I went to 'Other...', and in the 'Choose Application' window, navigated to the Numbers app, selected it and activated the 'Always Open With' option.
As you would expect, the file then opens in Numbers. However, whenever the computer has been off and I have logged in again, the default app for the file has reverted to Preview.
The only thing I can think of that might have a bearing on this problem is a recent App Store purchase. I bought Numbers on an iWork '09 disk back in 2008/9, but about a week ago decided to uninstall the iWork apps with AppZapper and buy them from the App Store (I just like to have the App Store as the source of my apps, and I had some money to spare). I can’t see why this would cause the problem, but the installation of these apps and the start of the problem seem to co-incide.
I wondered if the problem could be solved by re-creating my spreadsheet in a new Numbers file, so I opened Numbers, selected a blank worksheet and pasted the spreadsheet from the original file into this new one, but it made no difference: the next time I logged into my system, Preview was the default app for the new file as well. The problem persists even with new files created in Numbers, Pages or Keynote that are unconnected with older files and after the App Store purchases.
I would be grateful for any advice the community can offer.
Thank you.Hello again.
I followed your advice and created another user account, and in that one, Numbers, not Preview, was the default app for my Numbers file. Logging back into my original account, I deleted the com.apple.LaunchServices.plist file, and for good measure, the com.apple.LaunchServices.plist.lockfile as well, and reset Numbers as the default app for my Numbers file.
I restarted the system, but found that Preview was now the default app for the file. Perhaps the .plist file needed a second restarting of the system, so I set the default app for the file to Numbers again. I also put Pages, Numbers and Keynote into a new folder called iWork '09, as they used to be before I replaced my shop-bought iWork disk installations with the same apps bought form the App Store. I don't know if this made a difference. I restarted the system and, this time, the default app was Numbers.
Pages and Keynote are also now the default apps for files created by them.
You have been very helpful and I appreciate it. Thank you. -

Set the default field value to transaction code field, when calling from WD
Hi all,
Can we pass the value in a input field of a standard transaction calling from WD application. Suppose we are calling a transaction VA03 in an external window, then how will be pass the value in the VBAK_VBELN screen field.
Is there any way to pass the value to this transaction field. I have also tried out to set the parameter ID 'AUN' for VA03 transaction VBELN field. But it did not work for me.
Is there any way to set the default field value to transaction code field, when calling from WD?
Please suggest, if anyone have any idea.
Thanks
SanketHi,
I am using the below code to open a standard transaction. It will help you to explain my point more easily.
DATA: url TYPE string,
host TYPE string,
port TYPE string.
*Call below method to get host and port
cl_http_server=>if_http_server~get_location(
IMPORTING host = host
port = port ).
*create URL
CONCATENATE 'http'
'://' host ':' port
'/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui/?sap-client=&~transaction=' 'VA03'
INTO url.
*get the window manager as we are opening t code in external window.
DATA lo_window_manager TYPE REF TO if_wd_window_manager.
DATA lo_api_component TYPE REF TO if_wd_component.
DATA lo_window TYPE REF TO if_wd_window.
lo_api_component = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
lo_window_manager = lo_api_component->get_window_manager( ).
call the url which we created above
lo_window_manager->create_external_window(
EXPORTING
url = url
RECEIVING
window = lo_window ).
lo_window->open( ).
Note*
One more query I want to add to this thread, that is there any possibility to call a custom transaction as well?
